Monday Next.
Tho Sunday law violation case OF the
Territory against Gordon & Richie came
up before Justice Lippincott yesterday
afternoon. Counsel for defendants fled a
motion for dismissal on the ground that
the motion for change OF venue having once
been overruled, and that no new motion
having been filed, the court had no jurisdic-
ton. The prosecution argue that although
a case has been called for trial and no
conviction or acquittal reached, that there
has been no trial; that a trial must con.
stltute either acquittal or conviction: that
until q trial has been had, the J Justice has
the right to revise, review or correct anv
ruling or decision made on any motion or
decision in a case; that there being no trial
the Justice has tho right to review his
former decision, and change or overrule
that which is in contravention of law.
The question il: Was there q trial? II

Good Qualities of the Spider.

Among the many things that SUMMER
brings for one to enjoy Is the spider. The
spider family Is numerous, there being no
less than fifty tribes. All of them have
eight legs, with three joints in each, ter
minating In thin crooked claws. / inter
viewed one yesterday, and the occasion
was SO impressive that it will long remain
green in memory. The one [ had the
extreme pleasure of meet = had eight
eyes in the shape of a Letter y; on the
front part of his head was pair of sharp
crooked claws or forceps, which stood
horizontally, and which, when not in
use, are hidden from view in little cases
beautifully adapted for their reception,
and in which they fold ND like clasp
knife, and remain there between two
rows of teeth. The outer skim Is hard,
polished crust. From my recent expert
ence I am forced to the conclusion that
as an entertainer the unassuning Aneri-
can spider is immense, and never fails to
extend a warm reception. He Is remark
able Us an architect and an upholsteer--
has wisdom, foresight and braeery-and
he provides fer himself. his family and
their futuss. Williamsport Crit.
